Delighted to join #corksaysnotoracism with our sister organisation Travellers of North Cork and all our friends in solidarity who stand proud against all types of racism and discrimination on World Anti Racism Day!!!

Managed for wildlife.🤔Actual wildflowers like achillea and knapweed sprayed with herbicide to make way for marigolds and cosmos. Local authorities should be leading the way in a biodiversity crisis this is not good enough

Dipper has been doing some gardening. Planting a Marsh Marigold.

Two Laois men, Clifford Roe and Ian Fairbrother, have been convicted and fined for shooting rooks (protected). The prosecutions were taken under the Wildlife Act. Horrific footage, filmed by a local man, shows dead and dying rooks scattered around a field banbloodsports.wordpress.com/2023/03/28/two…

Under FF/FG/GP the interests of big polluters in Ireland have only been protected. No radical environmental policies we need have been implemented. Capitalist governments won’t make the changes we need because their for-profit system won’t allow it. SF do the same in the North.

Don’t mind me, I’m just parking my air quality lowering SUV in two bike lanes. #cyclingincork

So many tiny pieces of plastic in the seaweed 😥. It's hard to make a difference but I tried. #aberthawbeach #plasticpollution #plasticsnotfantastic

So that's why they're leaving billions unspent. The way this government bends over backwards to serve polluting industries putting billions aside during a housing crisis and with a collapsing healthcare system to pay fines for polluters is fiscal common sense

Smh.

14 months later another significant arson incident in the Glen Park that evidently burnt out by itself. Social experiment: the arsonists who have no respect for themselves or anyone else should try setting any park on on the south side ablaze and see how different the response is

Pictures just can't convey how lovely our back garden is after adding a pond and 4 years of no mowing (I trim some of the grass by hand and tend lightly). I'll zoom in to show you some of the wildflowers that bloomed during #NoMowMay ⤵️

Gorse fire burning away in Mayfield now. 🙄
